Terre Haute comes from the French phrase terre haute, which means “Highland.” It was likely named by French explorers in the early 18th century to describe the distinct location above the Wabash River. The recent community-wide initiative, 2013 Year of the River, provided arts, cultural, environmental and educational events focused on the river that gave Terre Haute its name. Through this initiative, Wabashiki was introduced. A 2,600 acre Fish and Wildlife Area along the Wabash River, Wabashiki oers patrons a location perfect for hunting, shing, trapping, bird viewing and many other outdoor activities. The Wabash River is the reason settlements rst occurred in this region, so it is important to enhance and protect this natural resource. The Wabash River is home to 150 species of sh, provides drinking water to 72 percent of Indiana counties and oers many outdoor recreation opportunities. Arts Initiated in 2003 through the eorts of dedicated volunteers from all areas of the community, Art Spaces is focused on uniting business and the arts to positively impact the economy of the area. It is the only not-for-prot organization in the Wabash Valley establishing a highly visible collection of site-specic outdoor sculpture. Be sure to check out Art Space’s outdoor sculptures located throughout the Wabash Valley, including A Chorus of Trumpets, Renewal, Max Ehrmann at the Crossroads, Emanating Connections and many more. Arts Illiana is a local, membership-based, non-prot organization that promotes, supports and enhances the arts and cultural activities of the Wabash Valley.

  • Hoosier Hard Times - Life Was a Strange, Colorful Kaleidoscopic Welter Then
    one Hoosier Hard Times - Life was a strange, colorful kaleidoscopic welter then. It has remained so ever since. A HOOSIER HOLIDAY since her marriage in 1851, Sarah Schänäb Dreiser had given birth al- most every seventeen or eighteen months. Twelve years younger than her husband, this woman of Moravian-German stock had eloped with John Paul Dreiser at the age of seventeen. If the primordial urge to reproduce weren’t enough to keep her regularly enceinte, religious forces were. For Theodore Dreiser’s father, a German immigrant from a walled city near the French border more than ninety percent Catholic, was committed to prop- agating a faith his famous son would grow up to despise. Sarah’s parents were Mennonite farmers near Dayton, Ohio, their Czechoslovakian ances- tors having migrated west through the Dunkard communities of German- town, Bethlehem, and Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. Sarah’s father disowned his daughter for marrying a Catholic and converting to his faith. At 8:30 in the morning of August 27, 1871, Hermann Theodor Dreiser became her twelfth child. He began in a haze of superstition and summer fog in Terre Haute, Indiana, a soot-darkened industrial town on the banks of the Wabash about seventy-five miles southwest of Indianapolis. His mother, however, seems to have been a somewhat ambivalent par- ent even from the start. After bearing her first three children in as many years, Sarah apparently began to shrink from her maternal responsibilities, as such quick and repeated motherhood sapped her youth. Her restlessness drove her to wish herself single again.

  • List of Directv Channels (United States)
    List of DirecTV channels (United States) Below is a numerical representation of the current DirecTV national channel lineup in the United States. Some channels have both east and west feeds, airing the same programming with a three-hour delay on the latter feed, creating a backup for those who missed their shows. The three-hour delay also represents the time zone difference between Eastern (UTC -5/-4) and Pacific (UTC -8/-7). All channels are the East Coast feed if not specified. High definition Most high-definition (HDTV) and foreign-language channels may require a certain satellite dish or set-top box. Additionally, the same channel number is listed for both the standard-definition (SD) channel and the high-definition (HD) channel, such as 202 for both CNN and CNN HD. DirecTV HD receivers can tune to each channel separately. This is required since programming may be different on the SD and HD versions of the channels; while at times the programming may be simulcast with the same programming on both SD and HD channels. Part time regional sports networks and out of market sports packages will be listed as ###-1. Older MPEG-2 HD receivers will no longer receive the HD programming. Special channels In addition to the channels listed below, DirecTV occasionally uses temporary channels for various purposes, such as emergency updates (e.g. Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Ike information in September 2008, and Hurricane Irene in August 2011), and news of legislation that could affect subscribers. The News Mix channels (102 and 352) have special versions during special events such as the 2008 United States Presidential Election night coverage and during the Inauguration of Barack Obama.

  • A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930
    Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences by Debra K. Burgess B.A. University of Cincinnati June 2012 M.A. University of Cincinnati April 2014 Committee Chair: Mark A. Raider, Ph.D. 24:11 Abstract Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 by Debra K. Burgess Child welfare programs in the United States have their foundation in the religious traditions brought to the country up through the late nineteenth century by immigrants from many European nations. These programs were sometimes managed within the auspices of organized religious institutions but were also found among the ad hoc efforts of religiously- motivated individuals. This study analyzes how the religious traditions of Catholicism, Judaism, and Protestantism established and maintained institutions of all sizes along the lines of faith- based dogma and their relationship to American cultural influences in the Midwest cities of Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh during the period of 1880-1930. These influences included: the close ties between (or constructive indifference exhibited by) the secular and sectarian stakeholders involved in child-welfare efforts, the daily needs of children of immigrants orphaned by parental disease, death, or desertion, and the rising influence of social welfare professionals and proponents of the foster care system.

His famous brother, Theodore Dreiser, wrote An American Tragedy and other novels. Composer of Indiana State Song, “On the Banks of the Wabash,” “My Gal Sal,” and many more, popular in the gay 90’s era. His famous brother, author Theodore Dreiser, wrote An American Tragedy and other novels. Report The markers commemorating Paul Dresser (born Dreiser) have been reviewed because their files contained inadequate primary sources to verify the marker texts. This report also provides additional information about Dresser and the significance of his song “On the Banks of the Wabash.” Both markers report Dresser’s birth date in 1859, but sources disagree and claim that he was born in 1857, 1858, or 1859.1 The U.S. Federal Census for the years 1860, 1870, and 1880 all list his birth year as “about 1858.” Both the 1860 and 1880 census records place him in Terre Haute, Indiana, but newspapers disagree on the exact location of his birth.2 A pamphlet issued by the Vigo County Historical Society states that the house he reportedly grew up in was moved to Fairbanks Park on Dresser Dr. in Terre Haute in the 1960s, where it still stands today.3 The rest of the text is accurate for both markers, but each omits quite a bit of detail regarding Dresser’s life.
